By IGN Staff

SaintXi, an independent games studio, today launched Light of Altair, their addictive new sci-fi strategy game for PC worldwide.

Light of Altair is a colony building simulation with a rich single player campaign based on a detailed future-history of Earth. You can grow colonies from landing pod to metropolis, while sending off new spaceships to expand your territory to other worlds. You are not alone in space, 8 factions from different parts of the world are all following their own agendas in the solar system challenging each other for wealth and power of the new worlds.

After you complete the campaign storyline there is a cruelly difficult "Hard Mode" to master, and the missions have bonus objectives to let you prove your economic and military tactics even further.

Light of Altair will today be available on Direct2Drive -- and other quality gaming distribution sites for $14.95 and you can play the demo at FilePlanet.
